Our first post lockdown trip was to Dungeness Nature Reserve. If you've been following a while, you'll know how much I (April) love a lighthouse (it's my goal in life to visit (or at least see) every one in the UK and as many as i can abroad haha), and the Old Lighthouse at Dungeness is one of my favourites! It's usually open to the public, but is shut this summer due to coronavirus, but don't worry, this was our 3rd time visiting, so we've been up it before!

Have you been to Dungeness before? It's such a strange area but we love it so much! Or have you got any weird goals to visit things in life?

What else is there to do on a campsite on a rainy day than update your chalkboard?!

When we arrived at the campsite, we realised it hadn't been changed since our trip to Spain in December so we were still greeted with Merry Christmas each time we opened the door! 😂 so while Shane got caught up on work, i decided to do some art and give it a new summer theme. Pretty proud of it if i do say so myself haha!

First time on a proper campsite (in the UK) for 2

First time on a proper campsite (in the UK) for 2 years! We stayed at one last year over easter in Wales, but it was just a farmers field where you could park where you liked and was like £4pp. It was so strange to be back at a campsite, and one that we'd previously stayed at when we used to use my parents caravan before we found vanlife.

With the way England is going, it looks like we'll have to start staying at a lot more campsites, which saddens us. We love the freedom of wildcamping - we don't have to rush to be checked in by a certain time, or off the pitch by a certain time. Usually, we're the only ones parked up, and it's just so much more relaxing to us. What are your thoughts on campsites/wildcamping?

We finally got away in the van this weekend to one of our favourite places in the UK and it was so good after 4.5 months of being cooped up in the house, even if it did rain as soon as we arrived at the campsite on Saturday afternoon 😂

We've missed this!

We did so much exploring around our local area during lockdown that we're so excited to get back out on the road again. It was actually quite nice to explore some cute places only a short drive away from us!

Is a van ever finished? We basically had it complete, then during lockdown, Shane decided to move the batteries, move the propex and build some extra storage among a list of other things I've forgotten (it's been a couple months since we last saw it).

What changes have you made to your van after it was "complete" or what changes do you want to make? I'm stillllll wishing Shane would clad over the carpet and ask him about it everytime we do work on the van 😂

This year is just full of surprises! We have a new family member! Meet Oslo! Me and mum have been fostering him and his brothers (and auntie + cousins haha) for the past 10 weeks and today the rest of them are off to their forever homes 😭 luckily we get to keep him, and my mum is keeping his brother Phoenix so we'll still have kittens running around the place. We definitely didn't plan on having any more cats, but then he came into our lives and i just couldn't bear to let him go ❤

Shane and i have debated trying to encourage him to be a van cat! Isla is too scared, Keeko is too independent, but hopefully if we start him young he'll love going on adventures with us! We'll see 😂 do you have a van cat?

Who else has approximately 100 fake plants in their van? 😂 we have them everywhere! I just love greenery and being outdoors, and with us not living in it full time, we definitely can't have real ones, so it's full of fake ones to bring the outside in!

Shane bought a kayak a couple weeks ago and he's been going out with a friend on the local rivers. We've debated getting an inflatable canoe/kayak for a few years to store in the van as we'd love to be able to go out on the water more!

Do you have a kayak/canoe or even a paddleboard (i would love to go paddleboard but that scares me so much haha). What are some of your recommendations for good inflatable kayaks that we could use on van trips?
